Woohoo! there is no way I could live on one photo a week. Maybe more like one a day...

[pickle123]

Hey thanks! Can't wait for it to be framed so I can really see what its going to look like! Good luck to you!

[boiler717]

[housegeek]

Wow yay. Boiler!!

[sassafrass]

How exciting! I don't know how you tolerate only one photo a week!!

[sratsey]

Exciting!!!

Ours is taking longer than I have been hoping. We started doing trims 2-3 weeks ago and they are still not done.

[housegeek]

Bump for update!

I hear trims take a lonnnng time Dori, so I'm sure I'll be with you soon enough hah.

[housegeek]

woot we have a roof!! and windows are going in tomorrow!

[aweilba]

How exciting! I think that building a house and choosing all of the finishings would be so much fun!

[housegeek]

It has been so far fun stuff

[emjacobs]

Honestly I thought that the building process flew once the walls went up. We broke ground 2nd week of July, and moved in 9/9. We would have moved in earlier but the power company was slacking on connecting the line to the house.

This is so fun because you are just a couple days behind us! I was shocked that our bathtubs went it after the windows.

Do you have a close date yet?

[housegeek]

We're supposed to close by August 15th, but the builder is also custom building my IL's home and he wants ours to be done the same time as theirs, mid July

That is awesome! We haven't gotten a date yet but it will not be before Aug 15.

[pickle123]

Dude so jealous! We just have a basement foundation. Grr!

[housegeek]

I know! I'm really excited. I mean, I know its not the fanciest house, but its our first so I'm thrilled hah. I've got so many projects in mind!

[sratsey]

Moving right along! Looks great!

[aprilfool]

Awesome!! I'm jealous. They are going to start digging for our foundation next week. Can't wait!

[tardyfortheparty]
